Chapter 645: The One-of-a-Kind Bracelet in the World

Jin Wan'er said, "I'm used to taking a walk after eating; would you mind accompanying me for a stroll?"

In truth, she would have preferred to go out alone, but knowing that wouldn't be granted, she settled for the next best thing.

The servant looked troubled: "Please wait a moment."

It seemed she was going to ask for instructions, but instead of leaving, she lowered her head, closed her eyes, and her lips moved.

After a while, she looked up: "You may." Jin Wan'er felt delighted inside, but did not show it on her face.

The two walked out of the room; the servant's intention was that walking back and forth in the corridor a few times would suffice as a stroll.

Jin Wan'er disagreed: "I want to go outside; it's too stuffy here, I can't catch my breath."

The servant firmly refused: "That is not allowed; the Clan Leader will not agree to you going outside."

Jin Wan'er: "Do you or do you not acknowledge me as the Young Master? You are very respectful with your words, but in reality, you don't acknowledge me at all, do you?"

"This servant would not dare! This servant has never had such thoughts, Young Master, please investigate!" The person suddenly knelt down, terrified.

Jin Wan'er was also startled; who knew she would kneel at the slightest disagreement.

This etiquette was too heavy; she was not used to it.

She subconsciously wanted to help the person up and had already half-crouched, but then changed her mind.

"Ahem."

Jin Wan'er cleared her throat, deliberately putting on a pained expression: "You wouldn't dare? Forget it, you just put on a show of respect, but as for what you're really thinking, I'm afraid only by having Aunt ask will I know."

"Since you only have the Clan Leader in your heart and not me, the Young Master, what is the point of me going back with you all?"

"Going back will just make me a puppet. With Aunt here now, you don't dare do anything to me, but I fear that once Aunt is gone, I won't live many more days in your hands..."

She discovered that the class consciousness here was extremely strict.

It would be better to use this to find an opportunity to escape!

After she finished speaking, the servant was already trembling like chaff—out of fear.

Her original glib tongue was gone, and she said repeatedly: "Young Master, please see clearly, this servant would not dare!"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Jin Wan'er softened her tone: "I am a pregnant woman; wanting to breathe fresh air is a normal request. Even if Aunt knew, she would understand."

"If you are afraid I will run away, you can send a few more people to follow me, how about that?"

Since things had reached this point, how could she have any reason to refuse?

"Alright, I will take you up."

Up?

Jin Wan'er's heart skipped a beat; was this really underground?

"Please follow me."

The servant didn't call for more people; it seemed she was very confident that she wouldn't run away?

She followed the servant through the corridor and through door after door.

The guards had likely already received orders, and the path was completely unobstructed wherever the two went.

The further out they went, the colder it got.

Finally, they reached an elevator.

The servant pressed her palm against the elevator, the door opened, and the two entered.

There were no buttons, yet the elevator rose bit by bit.

"Ding—"

The door opened, and the howling wind outside immediately poured in.

"Achoo!"

Jin Wan'er sneezed from the wind, but a moment later, she was stunned by the scenery outside!

What was going on?

Outside, it was desolate as far as the eye could see.

The elevator entrance was in an abandoned Air Raid Shelter, and outside was nothing but reeds!

Boundless, with no telling how many there were.

And there wasn't even a road.

"Young Master, look, I really didn't lie to you. There is no place to walk up here; it is better down below, where everything is available."

The servant was not stupid; she knew what Jin Wan'er was planning.

Since she knew, yet still brought her up, it was nothing more than to make her give up—don't think about escaping, you can't run, there's nowhere to run!

"Let's stand outside for a while; just breathing some fresh air is enough." Jin Wan'er did not lose heart.

She now understood why only one person was following her; in such an environment, there was no fear of her running away.

Jin Wan'er didn't intend to run either; she used the advantage of her long sleeves to take off her bracelet and quietly clutched it in her palm.

This bracelet was a holiday gift her husband bought for her on Valentine's Day.

Custom-made by a top master, the only one in the world!

"Very well."

Since they were already outside, the servant became easy to talk to and followed her out.

The wind whistled by.

It was very refreshing.

But the servant seemed not to be used to it; she turned up her collar to cover her chin and cheeks.

"So comfortable."

Jin Wan'er took a few deep breaths of fresh air and even stretched a big stretch!

"Young Master, let's go back down; the wind is strong outside, it won't be good if you catch a chill."

"Mm, go on down."

Jin Wan'er agreed very easily.

The thing she wanted to do was already finished; just now, when she stretched, the bracelet had been caught on a reed flower!

She was now praying that the wind would not blow the bracelet onto the ground.

Actually, even if it were blown to the ground by the wind, it wouldn't matter; it was an overcast day now, and once the sun came out, the sunlight shining on the bracelet would reflect a dazzling light, making it easy for someone to discover, provided someone came looking here.

With the goal accomplished, the two returned along the original path.

After returning, Jin Wan'er was very quiet, neither shouting nor making a fuss, waiting silently for her husband to come and rescue her.

She believed that someone would definitely come looking for her!

"Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan, wake up."

It was dawn.

Sheng Hanyu had not slept all night, keeping watch with a Dagger in his hand.

This place was very desolate; he wasn't afraid of people coming, only of animals or snakes darting in!

Fortunately, there was nothing, and it was very safe.

He nudged his wife, but Shi Youxuan did not wake up; the outside was gradually brightening, and by the light from outside, Sheng Hanyu discovered that his wife's face was flushed red.

Sheng Hanyu's large hand touched his wife's forehead; oh no, she had a fever!

"Xuanxuan, Xuanxuan, sit up!"

He helped his wife up, carried her on his back, and walked out of the small earthen hut to look for the car.

Sheng Hanyu had no idea at all whether he would be able to find the car.

But even if there was only a tiny bit of hope, he had to go look; his wife must have caught a chill, which was why she had a fever.

Shi Youxuan's health was not very good, and her fever would only go down if she took medicine; waiting here idly was not a solution.

Originally, he thought he would have to search for a long time, but as it turned out, he discovered the car parked not far away after walking only a short distance from the small earthen hut!

This was the place where he had parked the car yesterday; last night, they had searched this area at least dozens of times back and forth, and they hadn't seen a trace of the car at all.

But now, just as if it had suddenly vanished, it had appeared out of thin air!

Regardless of how, finding the car was a good thing.

To be cautious, Sheng Hanyu first carefully inspected the inside and outside of the car, and only after confirming there were no problems did he place his wife on the back seat.

There was mineral water in the car, as well as a small first-aid kit.

Thank heavens, there was fever-reducing medicine in the kit.

He unscrewed a bottle of water, took out two pills, and fed them to his wife.

Shi Youxuan slowly opened her eyes a crack, and in an instant, she opened them wide in disbelief, saying with pleasant surprise, "Hanyu, you found the car?"

"Mm, we are going back immediately."

Sheng Hanyu took a blanket out of the trunk and covered his wife with it, tucking her in tightly.

"No need, I'll be fine if I just rest for a bit."

"Cough, cough."

Shi Youxuan felt lightheaded and heavy, her brain muddled.

But her Telepathy with Jin Wan'er had become even stronger; she felt that Wan'er was nearby, very close!

"No, you must go back and rest."
